Arlington TVBU505-1 Recessed TV Box Wall Plate Kit Paintable 2-Gang, White

If you're planning to mount your TV to the wall, then this recessed box is an excellent way for you to add a plug and to allow extra wires to pass through to it. A wall studed with 2x4s works well with this product. Although using this box can be a little more challenging on insulated walls, I have hung 4 televisions using this box on walls that were not insulated, with the exception of one. As soon as it's installed, it looks much more professional. A surge protector that is integrated into the outlet is usually the easiest way to protect the TV (you can get one on Amazon as well, highly recommended). I would recommend this product to anyone.

A recent home theater upgrade gave me a chance to use this box. I integrated the mounting bracket I purchased to hold the TV into the left side of the box, with only a few filing operations necessary to the right and left edges of the face frame. In this way, it should be virtually invisible when The only minor complaint I have with the box is that the Romex clamp came installed in one of the two electrical box knockouts. I had to move it to the other side to complete the installation, and was disappointed to find that there was no knock out plug including with In my previous purchases of Arlington larger boxes, the plastic plug required to comply with the installation code was included. It was possible to replace the plastic knockout plug with a metal knockout plug, but the metal knockout plug should have been supplied, or the clamp should not have been preassembled Initially I had to plug a hole because the plug was damaged when I installed it. In fairness, it is possible that the plug was just missed out of the package. No matter how it performs, I would definitely buy this box again, because it has a great fit for.

There were no screws included to attach the trim piece to the box. In addition, you'll need 4 #6 x 1/2" screws. Those screws must be supplied by you. I had the screws on hand because I have every screw that has ever been left over since I started doing projects. Aside from that, there is only one grommet for the electrical despite the fact that there are It must not be too expensive for the manufacturer to replace these components. How did the 5 stars come about? As I said, I love this box despite its flaws since it allows me to route cables from components to the TV. If you buy them in pairs, you'll save money We advise you to hang one behind the TV and the other behind the table or cabinet that holds all You will need to provide your own electrical outlet and low voltage connector. The six slot snap-in I used had a diameter of 7 mm Cable management is included in the unit to manage HDMI, Ethernet, and coaxial cable. The installation can be custom designed to fit your needs. Note I have added a caution to the last paragraph It is important to consider two things due to the recessed outlets. 2) The recessed outlet may not be able to handle plugs or transformers that are too large, and the operation may be rendered ineffective. 3) Any cables in the back should fit between the box and the wall behind it, in the tight space between them. Choose a box that has surface mounted outlets if you are worried about these issues.

Basically, I purchased these items so that I can customize the look of my home entertainment center (hide unsightly cords and trip So that I could keep the TV as close to the wall as possible without damaging the cables, I liked the recessed option. According to my list, the other items (which I previously mentioned) fit nicely in the box, but were not necessarily needed for the review. It took two days for the items to arrive Prime members are expected to receive their items within three days of purchase. Item packaging was prepackaged and all items were All of the components fit well together and looked clean once installed and in use, as you can see in the pictures. Although I have only one complaint, I would still recommend it and do it again even though the plastic components are quite expensive. The cons are It is expensive for items made of plastic
Pros I like the way it fits
The installation process is simple and easy - The setup is clean this way.

Ok, I understand. After I installed the two blue box from the big box store, I found that they broke during installation There was nothing you could do but fumble with the retaining screws and flimsy metal holding tabs. I will try again if I am fooled again, but twice I will fail. The time for moving on has come. Having finally installed it, I have finally gotten around to getting this. As far as the design is concerned, there are both good and bad features While it allows easy hookups to be put into the wall, some plugs may have the cord coming out of the side, and the sunken outlet is difficult to plug into. As for the design, it is solid with a nice build quality and a lot of nice features. It succeeds where others.

I like how solid the box feels, and how easy it is One of the things I didn't like about it was that some of the items were missing. Are you saying that you don't need low voltage wires coming through the opening to What if there was a blank cover included that could be used to plug it in the mean time. Would it be a good buy if you added a second outlet as opposed to just one, or even an attachment that just made it a two-gang device? I feel like for the price you could get a much better product. Although the app does work, I believe it's not worth the price. It does what it's supposed to do, but my view of its value is lacking.
